As I said - They just needed access to the catalogs.
"Amazon today announced that Hulu Plus, Crackle, and SHOWTIME ANYTIME are joining VEVO in integrating their full catalogs into Fire TV's unified voice search."http://www.businessinsider.com/c/534485be69beddd24ad9920fMr ThriftyTue, 08 Apr 2014 19:26:54 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/534485be69beddd24ad9920f
>Amazon doesn't mention that this feature only works with its own content.
First you say it works with Amazon and Vivo, Then you say it only works with Amazon.
If voice search works with Vivo, it may just be that Netflix, for example, has not granted Amazon direct access to their content database, Amazon might not want the job of creating, and constantly updating, their own parallel Netflix database...http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53447849ecad045f45084736Steven CravisTue, 08 Apr 2014 18:29:29 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53447849ecad045f45084736
Good point, @Mr Happy.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/534476c1eab8ead11c0d57f5Mr HappyTue, 08 Apr 2014 18:22:57 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/534476c1eab8ead11c0d57f5
But just like Amazon they'll restrict it to their own content. There's a reason Amazon did it like that, and it's not because they're stupid.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53446c676da811550372c34dSteven CravisTue, 08 Apr 2014 17:38:47 -0400http://www.businessinsider.com/c/53446c676da811550372c34d

Oh good. Now Apple knows to make it's next Apple TV device voice search across all apps.
